About Us
WTS International was founded in the US in 1977 and
has grown over the years into an organisation of almost 4,000
members, both men and women. WTS has substantially influenced
US transport policy since its inception almost thirty years
ago.
The organisation is dedicated to the professional advancement of women in transportation, helping women find opportunity and recognition in the industry.
WTS London was launched in 2005, in acknowledgement of a chronic
under-representation of women in the transport industry. WTS
London is under-pinned by its policies on
equality and diversity,
sustainability and
health and safety and the decisions of the organisations are
governed by its Board.
WTS London strives to provide its members with a dynamic programme
of events and development opportunities. A key aim is to
provide unique and cost-effective training for members and their
employers. See the News and Events section for more
detail.
